Curious what a big German V8 engine looks like apart? Here’s one you don’t see every day. This very nice BMW 740 needed some attention, an upper engine reseal, and the AMC team was up the task. Oil consumption was measured in hundreds, not thousands of miles, and the car left a white cloud of smoke on start up. A defective crankcase breather system, replacement of some very leaky engine seals, and then a through cleaning and service cured the problem, resulting in a very well running BMW, and a delighted customer. You can’t help but love German design and engineering, look at those gears and sprockets, so enjoy the photos. Engine is now very happy, and so is our new customer. Making things shiny, that’s what we do. 🙂
